ACTION GAMES IN RPGMAKER

Rpg Maker probably isn't the best mainly because rpg-maker is tile based, you can code pixel movement but it's a pain in the fucking ass... Like wip said there are better engines than RM.

But for RPG's I DON'T recommend game maker, it is easy to code an exact replica of an engine but pulling the game part off is the next pain in the ass.
I'm really looking foward to sphere because it's like RM just not as limiting actually it's not limited at all.

Though Game Maker is great for beta testing engines.
